Hi I'm a story artist in the UK looking for my first story job!! I love feature and want to help make films!!

Biography

Howdy!

As I said in my intro I'm a story artist in the UK, I graduated in 2021 from Arts University Bournemouth. I've spent from graduation until May 2022 finishing my student film. After that I took a break before working on my own portfolio pieces and in June-July 2023 I took part in Matt Jones Summer Story Workshop so I could try and continue my education/practice. I have a deep love of cinema, film, cameras and cartoons and I feel this can be felt throughout my work. 

I'm looking for my first story position and would love to learn!!
